Watching this fiasco tonight has me seriously concerned about Wallace. He looks very Spergonish out there.

We are so screwed if Colt goes down due to injury. Like season is over screwed. This could be a distinct possibility with the state of the o-line - Steinbach being on IR for the year, and the right side still lacking talent. We could be in store for another long year. Let's hope the train stays on the tracks.

We had a plan that involved a seasoned vet starter going into last year. I know the plan blew apart for various reasons but going into this year, I cringe with the thought of Wallace getting any significant playing time. It is a possibility, that's all I'm saying.

I think you are in good hands with Wallace as a back up. The guys a career backup he thrives in that position, almost like a good MLB reliever who could never cut it as a starter. Look around the NFL I think the Browns are set up better then most when it comes to QB backup.

I just don't want to see him for any length of time. It would mean bad performance by the starter or serious injury and we could also have some major o-line problems.

Agreed, but I think it's a good sign when the Browns are in a position where the fans DON'T want to see the back up QB

Not that I blame him. He's improved immensely during this preseason. That throw showed a maturity I didn't expect at all.

SD:

Brown has shown an ability to improve , in three weeks , he's gone from a cut to a viable third string project .

With the new rules allowing you to dress the third QB and not count him on your 45 day roster essentially giving you 46 men on game day inlieu of 45 your foolish not to keep three QB's on your final 53.

Doubt Brown can clear waivers no matter how many drunken slurpy acclamations by Kosar to the contrary .

If Heckert is dumb enough to cut him without adding somebody better behind Seneca Wallace , I don't know what to tell ya , going with just two guys after last years debacle is to run thru a Briar patch ,butt Nekid.
